What an amazing experience Chris. We all think you thoroughly deserve that privilege.
We thank you my friend! Videos like this are for this whole community
Chris, for me this experience for you shows how much respect you have from Gatwick Airport. You have always shown them respect and I too would like to thank everyone who arranged for you to have Air Side Access. Amazing footage or as you love to say, and I agree 100% “Beautiful”. Loved seeing the footage from the Tug. Chris you have built your channel which is Respected by all those who work at Airports and your members. I’m 75 now, loved Aviation since I was 10 but my enthusiasm has got even more stronger since joining your channel. Of course Heathrow, Stansted and London City Airports also respect your channel. Great Video.
Thanks Stewart for the words
Hello Chris. I worked for BAA in Airport Operations from 1969 until August 2000 when I took early retirement. Great days.. Originally based top of the main office building in those 3 large glass windows where it says "Welcome to Gatwick" where we did all the stand allocations. Later on the airfield in the Leader Vehicles runway inspections etc.. Good old days of DanAir and Laker , British Caledonian etc with Comets, B707 , Dc8, VC10 , Bac1-11 and many more.. A lot has changed now at Gatwick but happy memories. Love following your streams mate.. Keep them going 👍
Thanks Ian! Sorry took so long to respond to this
G'day Chris. Wow what great footage. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. You deserve it Chris. Your channel is my favourite of all the aviation ones. You have worked so hard and built a lovely community. I always enjoying having chats with the others who follow you when ever I am able to catch your lives which is not all the time with the time difference between the UK and NZ. Have a great week. Debbie
My pleasure Debbie glad you can enjoy this
It's absolutely amazing footage. This just proves what a quality product SDTV is.
Thanks Mike 👌🏻
Hi chris,wow just wow what a once in a life experience for you and so well deserved,gotta say it was good to see someone filming you as you we're filming,gotta say driving that tug would be an amazing job but i bet the people driving them just take it for granted what they do while we inc you are in ore of what they do aswell as all the other ground crew💪massive thankyou to london gatwick and Asc and tui for allowing you to do this and lets hope you get the chance again in the future🤞🤟🤟👍
Thank you mark for supporting and watching
So pleased to see you are getting access airside. It's so great to see a TH-camr making great video's and not just in it for the money. I used to follow another guy on here but you can't even join in chat without paying. I am proud to be a member of your chanel, Oliverdots. Keep up the fantastic work Chris. You and the mods produce an amazing service to plane freaks like myself and the members of SDTV are amazing. we are one big happy family. I love it here.
Thank you so much Oliver I really appreciate it
Amazing Chris, the Trust and RESPECT you have earned from the Air travel Industry is totally warranted.
You go out of your way to entertain us, and you really deserve days like this. Well done mate and what a great insight that we would never see as enthusiasts.
When we saw the inside of the 787 I couldn't see the Big Red button that says 'DO NOT PRESS' you know the one Dougal saw in that Father Ted Episode 🤣 ....... Brilliant Chris

Woww! How gorgeous to see them up so close! Ohmygosh! I wish I could do that at Stansted and see my favourite cargo West Atlantic jet 737-3Y0(SF) up close. I will just have to haunt him otherwise when I pass! 😮😊😂
Absolutely top notch filming, Chris! 👍 Thankyou so much!

Wow, what a video to be proud of!
I've not flown for probably 40yrs but want to see Gatwick as I want to fly to Glasgow. I just need to get my bearings.
I don't appreciate all of what goes on getting a jet airborne, the airport must be truly organisef.
Thank you

If only, it was possible to have a tour airside at Gatwick. It’s been my childhood dream to do
It would be amazing and never say never
@@SDTVLiveAviation just don’t know who to approach about getting permission to go airside for a tour
Loving this vibes Chris!
Thanks Joel
Looks like you had a great time! I worked on the ramp for just under a year at LGW and this gave me flashbacks. Awesome place to work ✈️
Great place Dan honestly
Great video Chris
Big love mat
This is great! I'm very jealous, I'd love to spend a day airside learning all about the Ops 😁
Glad we can bring this to you
Brilliant Chris
As I said mate! The thanks goes to LGW and TUI and ASC 👌🏻
This is absolutley brilliant you lucky devil Chris
Thanks Jeff, all the thanks go to TUI and LGW mate
Nice job 👍🏻
Nice work Chris, a great behind scene's look into ground ops. I did something similar back when I was training to be a travel agent in Brisbane, I spent 2 weeks on ground ops with Qantas at the domestic terminal.
Thanks Scott
Brilliant this
Thanks Flyer
Great stream Chris. I was just wondering what will top this.All the best ❤

Thanks Deltic 👌🏻
Chris you are one lucky geezer ❤
I’m just trying my hardest to bring everything to all of us that love aviation ✈️
Lucky man😊
Very lucky, but this footage is for all of us in the community
I’ll bet ALL of the plane spotters that have TH-cam channels in Los Angeles watched this,,,,,, and I’ll bet NONE of them commented or liked this video out of spite. FACTS 🤷🏼♂️
I personally think it’s great 👍🏻
Thanks Ross ✈️✈️
Amazing video mate should get you over to british airways one day and get you on a triple 7 push ✈️
Well hopefully BA will allow it next time Phil and we can do it
@@SDTVLiveAviation i will speak with my ramp manager and see what is said ✈️
Miss working on pixie dust lgw

Interesting there are no wing walkers like in the states
Different procedures here would love to see airside what the folks in the states do
